Florida Immigration Law

Judge Mahlon Hanson of Miami Immigration Court has a documented track record of granting less than three percent of asylum cases that are presented to him. Our firm's client, a Venezuelan poll worker, recently became one of the statistically few who receive a grant of asylum from Judge Hanson. Our client was first threatened and then attacked by forces loyal to President Chavez following her political activities for the Democratic Action party. One of the key factors in this hard fought victory was the testimony of our client's therapist, who stated that the client exhibited symptoms consistent with post-traumatic distress syndrome. Expert testimony of this nature can be an effective tool in presenting an asylum case when appropriate.
